(Instructions have been updated with extra troubleshooting information related to automatic network discovery)

PC Host Application Changes:

  • Controller Bug Fixes
    • Fixed an issue where controller gamepad data was not being streamed correctly on certain network cards.
      • Basically, needed to confirm the size of the gamepad data payload and if it wasn't as expected, keep reading the socket before proceeding.
    • Fixed the incorrect button mapping for the joycon's 'minus' button being mapped to the 'guide' button on the Xbox 360 controller.
      • Now 'minus' is mapped to 'back' on the 360 controller.
    • Fixed a potential overflow bug with the virtual controller analog sticks for the DS4 and X360 controller.
  • Diagnostic Output
    • Network configuration information is checked and displayed by the program.
      • This will help when users report networking issues as well as help users be able to easily determine the IP address of the PC without having to use ipconfig.
    • Monitor display information is displayed. This will be useful when users report clipped desktops coming through the Switch.
    • Virtual controller sanity checks are performed now. This is to make sure the virtual controller driver is installed and working.
    • The output from FFMPEG when encoding video and audio is now a configuration option. Users can choose to show the encoder logging data or not. This will mainly be useful for debugging odd situations where audio isn't coming through or video seems to fail.
      • This is in a configuration file called 'config.ini'. It is located in the same place as 'switch-remote-play-host.exe'.

Switch Application Changes:

  • Configuration Options
    • Broadcast Address added as a configuration option. The PC application will display the broadcast address to be added to the switch application's config file. Adding it will allow automatic network discovery to work when pressing the 'L' button.
      • Without this option being specified it will default to 192.168.0.255. If you do not specify your broadcast address in the config file then you will have to use Manual IP Mode.
    • Manual IP Mode Enabled option is now stored in the config file. This will allow users to now be able to just press 'R' once the application opens to connect without having to go to the manual IP mode screen and press 'enabled'.

This release is a stepping stone towards more diagnostic info. I had other plans for this release but I had a fair few issues reported, with the controller issue being very high priority.

Thank you for being patient. More feature updates will come, but ensuring users can correctly report issues took priority for this release.

Enjoy!
